Chelsea and Real Betis are set to clash in the UEFA Europa Conference League final at the Stadion Miejski in Wroclaw, Poland, on May 29. For Chelsea, this final presents an opportunity to etch their name in the history books by becoming the first club to win all five of UEFA’s major men’s senior club competitions. The Blues have already secured two UEFA Champions League titles, two Europa League titles, two UEFA Super Cups, and two UEFA Cup Winners’ Cups.

Under the guidance of head coach Enzo Maresca, Chelsea have looked strong throughout the tournament and are clear favorites going into the final. However, Real Betis, making their debut in a European final, are aiming to script a historic underdog triumph. The Seville-based side will be looking to continue a long-standing Spanish dominance in UEFA finals—since the 2001/02 season, all 23 major European finals involving Spanish clubs have been won by teams from La Liga.

Adding another layer of intrigue is the connection between the managers. Maresca played under Betis coach Manuel Pellegrini at Malaga and later worked as his assistant at West Ham. Their shared history now transforms into a competitive rivalry on one of Europe’s biggest stages. Moreover, Maresca’s own history with Betis’s city rivals, Sevilla, where he scored a memorable derby-winning goal in 2005, adds extra spice to the occasion.

Kick-off is scheduled for 12:30 AM IST, with live broadcast available on Sony Sports Network and streaming on Sony Liv. While Chelsea chase a record-setting
